Tutorials

The tutorials in this guide will help you create a number of automations from scratch. Each tutorial offers a step-by-step guide on how to set up an automation for a specific manual process. Follow the tutorials and you'll learn how to organize projects, add and configure activities, and see how StudioX integrates with Excel and Outlook to speed up and simplify automation design. If you get stuck or you want to compare your project with the one in the tutorial, you can download the project for each tutorial, open it, and run it from StudioX.
